First thing you can do after successfull installation
is to check the status of all Mentat system modules:

# The 'status' command is default, so this is a short form:
mentat-controller.py
# And the same, but more verbose:
mentat-controller.py --command status
# Or even:
mentat-controller.py --command=status

Each Mentat module does have appropriate configuration file in /etc/mentat
directory. You might want to browse through those and tweak something here and there.
The configuration file has the same name as the module itself with .conf suffix.

Mentat ships with built-in web user interface called Hawat. Point your web browser
to the correct URL and you should see something similar to this (depending on the
size of your viewport you may see more or less information):

You have to login using the dropdown button labeled Anonymous in the top right
corner. You may switch to more appropriate locale, if that is available in your
installation. If you are browsing through demo installation try following combinations
of login nad password:

admin->adminmaintainer->maintainerdeveloper->developeruser->user

After successfull login the main menu bar at the top of the page appears and you
may proceed. Following figures are appropriate for admin level user account.
